HIGHER GERMAN SCHOOLS
KEEP OPEN DURING WAR
i
BERLIN, Sept. 14. —Except for four
forestry schools, all the German in
' stitutions of higher education have
kept open throughout the war, though,
'of course, with diminished attend- ;
1 ance.
In the summer term of 1914 there
were at the 22 German universities, 11 .
technical academies, 5 commercial
colleges, 3 veterinary schools, and six
agricultural and mining schools, 79,-
100 students, a number which in the
autumn off 1914 had sunk to 64,700. Os
this number 50,900 were registered as
“under arms.”
In the present summer term, tKere
are only 2300 students attending lec
tures at Berlin University, as compar
ed with 8,600 last year. This number
I
includes women students.
The percentage of German univers
ity students who have gone to the
front is largest at Koenigsberg—B4 I
per cent; while it is 60 per cent at j
Heidelberg; 56 per cent at Munich, 54
per cent at Merlin and only 11 per
cent at Frankfurt.
The total number of German stud
ents and professors killed in the war,
according to the Academic Rundschau
is 1,200. Leipzig University has suf
fered most severely of all, losing 266
students.
